Designer Kids Clothes Sparking Huge Increase In Household Spending

NEW YORK — Juliet Sandler dresses in the latest $650 dresses and $400 shoes from Parisian fashion house Lanvin. Juliet is 3.

Her mother, Dara Sandler, says she dresses her daughter in the latest fashions because Juliet is a reflection of her – even though her daughter can’t spell the names of the designers, let alone pay for their clothes.

“I dress my daughter exactly the way I dress myself,” says the 33-year-old Manhattan mother, who spent $10,000 for her daughter’s summer wardrobe. She plans to spend a few thousand dollars more for fall.

RUN IT: LaLa Anthony VS. Fergie In GIVENCHY

Mar31

LaLa Anthony first rocked this polychromatic, fitted Givenchy frock for her appearance last week on “Fox & Friends” in NYC. She threw her hair into a a sleek, high bun while smoking out her eyes and offering up a pink lip. The 32-year-old reality star kept the jewelry to a minimum with a pair of diamond studs and a few thin gold bracelets. But La was anything but minimal with her sky high nude, black & coral Louboutin Summerissima sandals.

Fergie also rocked this curve-hugging Givenchy dress while celebrating her 37th birthday in Las Vegas last night. She hit the carpet at 1 OAK at the Mirage Hotel & Casino with her blonde tresses flowing big and wavy. Her jewelry was also kept to a minimum with just a ring, in order to let the sky blue hues and coral & hot pink florals and printed studded belt printed around the waist take center stage. Fergie topped off her birthday look with simple black pumps and a shiny black clutch.
